| Hi Holly,
If Aaron is high to start with, he's usually higher than normal at 2 hours (and with a big meal, if he's in normal range at two hours he will definitely be low an hour or two later).
What has helped him most in this situation is to "superbolus" -- if you're on a pump? It sounds like you are...
So you suspend your basal for a couple of hours, and add that amount to your upfront bolus -- sort of borrow your basal and give it all at once. (So if your basal is 1.1 units per hour, and you suspend for 2 hours, add 2.2 units to your bolus.) It helps get on top of the high BG faster, without sending you low later.
